“Words can be like x-rays if you use them properly—they’ll go through anything.” Readers of Brave New World will be pierced by an activity that asks them to use details from the text to craft a biopoem for one of the characters in Aldous Huxley’s classic dystopian novel. The biopoem template is included, as is an example using John Savage.
